A sewing device includes a power source, an input shaft to which a driving force from the power source is transmitted, an output shaft that outputs the driving force transmitted to the input shaft, and a transmission mechanism that transmits the driving force from the input shaft to the output shaft, in which the transmission mechanism includes a first gear that is provided in the output shaft and rotates integrally with the output shaft, a second gear that meshes with the first gear, an intermediate shaft that rotates integrally with the second gear, and a timing belt stretched between the input shaft and the intermediate shaft, in which the second gear is disposed to be movable in a circumferential direction of the first gear. As a result, loosening of the timing belt can be adjusted in a compact configuration.

Sewing device

There is provided a sewing device comprising a needle and a looper, the sewing device including a rotation shaft that rotates the looper, and a set bolt that has a conical distal end and positions the looper in an axial direction relative to the rotation shaft from a radial direction of the rotation shaft, in which the looper includes a through screw hole into which the set bolt is screwed, the rotation shaft includes a groove recessed from a peripheral surface of the rotation shaft, and the groove includes an inclined surface that the distal end of the set bolt contacts. In one aspect, in the sewing device, a cross section of the groove viewed in a direction along an axis of the rotation shaft has a V shape. As a result, a relative position between the needle and the looper can be positioned with significantly high accuracy.

Sewing device and looper positioning method

A clamping device includes a cylinder, a base body, a movable plate, and holding pins. The movable plate is attached to the base body substantially parallel thereto via two pairs of link arms. The movable plate moves along the operating direction of the cylinder. The movable plate can abut against a width-direction side surface of a workpiece. The holding pins are attached to the movable plate. The holding pins abut against an upper portion of the workpiece.

Clamping device and workpiece clamping method

A sewing device includes: a plurality of actuators; and a plurality of seating bodies that are provided in an attachable/detachable manner to the individual actuators to seat on certain regions of an object-to-be-sewn. The sewing device further includes a restraining jig. Due to the restraining jig collectively restraining the plurality of seating bodies provided to the actuators, the plurality of seating bodies can withdraw from the actuators.
